Worth it? - Nexus One General

I have a T-mobile HD2 and really dont like it, i'm prob going sell it and buy the N1. Just want to know is it worth it? Do you think this phone will keep you at bay for at least a year till you want a new phone or should i wait for something else?
Thanks

you need to use the search tool, kidtech. this exact question, and almost exact same thread title, have already been brought up.
but, in answer, i love my N1. the girl-buddy just got an incredible yesterday, and while i like some features on it, i still prefer my N1

Why didn't you test out the HD2 before buying it?

wondering the same thing...can we get some screen shots of it????
This needs to go if it is the same thing... I have it. and if anyone really wants it they can go and find it pretty eazy. (just google warez and youll find it).
I do dig it and currently use it. But remember why it was taken off of here in the first place. This is a proper and respected site and it's intlectual property of palm (though obviously I dont care too much about that ).
it looks like the same one
Yeah it is the same one. I had a few people ask for it so i thought i may as well just plonk it on here. Removed it now though just incase.

If you were thinking anout getting N1.. DO IT!

I just switched from touch pro 2 and let me tell you... There is no comparison. I had TP2 for a year and almost everytime I had to do something fast, look something up or do somehing more complicated than calling - it would fail me. It led to a constant feeling of doubt and being unsure if it will just freeze when I need it the most.
N1 is freaking fast. Everything on it JUST WORKS. There is no guessing, like on TP2 - "omg I hope this launches.. I hope I don't have to soft reset.." - everything is integrated, every transition happens in a snap, every task you throw at it is handled immediatly and with style. It's a reliable life partner.
If you are undecided like I was a week ago about switching to N1, do it - you'll wish u've done it sooner.
Android FTW.

Its far better than the TP2 but it reboots by itself alot. I don't know why. I do understand you, coming form that phone also. But its not perfect yet.

THANK YOU, OP!
Yes, I was pretty undecided up until now. I have a SE X1 and really, I know what you're talking about when you mention "doubt". I just hate the thing and WM makes it a nightmare. When I got my X1 I was thinking of keeping the phone for a long time, I wasn't expecting a $900 phone to turn out to be complete crap both hardware wise (flimsy, crappy keyboard, crappy paint, etc.) and software wise (WM!!!). Hopefully, I can use the N1 for a longer time with the updates and all...
I guess I'll be getting it now for sure, the only thing left to decide is whether or not it's worth it to wait the extra time to have it engraved...ha!

Actually I ordered mine engraved and it shipped the same day. Suppose to be delivered today .
You may also want to check this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=654493
I also came from a TP2 and I don't miss it or windows mobile at all. The laggy feel to if it was on for a day with no soft reset. Glad to see I wasn't the only one who made the switch.
And to fill that final need.......
go and download dildroid just google it. Now your phone can handle anything, no really, I mean anything!

Dude, be VERY careful about the engraving.
Read the warranty policy - if you engrave it, it becomes a non-refundable phone that can only be sent in for repairs, if needed. Also, think if you'll want to sell it in a year or two.. nobody wants your "My name is John and I have a 12" tool" engraving.
Not that it's a bad service, just make sure you consider that.

Hehe. My name is Andrei as well actually =)
I'm thinking that if I do want some "engraving" on it, I could get away with a transparent acid-sticker of a sort.. at least that I can remove and sell/return if need arises.
Although only death can separate me form my N1 at this point.
If Adobe would hurry and release the fully gpu accelerated flash player for this phone, I'd give it a 10 out of 10.
Seriously! The ipad / iphone guys are crying so hard about wanting html 5 everywhere because they're not allowed to have flash.. I worry that Adobe's missed the boat on this one.
Not a single developer leaking the gpu flash 10 player for android either..

Everyones moaning and crying about the nexus one being outdated by newer phones such as the incredible and the evo but technically they're all outdated since the htc scorpion is going to be "whats hot". Its really annoying how some of these people are so concerned about being outdated. Appreciate what you have and make the best out of it.
I think
The nexus is still the top phone, which is why I ordered one yesterday even with all the new phones out, this is my reasoning.
Even with a1.5 processor, our nexus can be clocked to a stable 1.2 at least, and with that speed I font believe a phone actually Needs more because my nexus already flys.
That's just my input on this outdated deal.

If you always MUST live on the "Bleeding Edge" with the best of everything, you will run out of blood and run out of money.
The way I see it, living always on the newest hottest thing out there are for the people with more money than brains.
Yes, I have a Nexus One, I bought it BRAND NEW, but my total out of pocket expense was $140.00, because I sold or traded stuff I had, but stuff I could sell to get the money I needed to get this phone.
So it would not be worth it for me to try and get the next new hot thing out there because I love my N1 and would be hard pressed to see something pass this one up.
I have played with TONS of new android phones that are not out yet (MyTouch Slide, what a joke) and NONE of them are anything that even gave me a slight twinge of wanting to jump off the N1 scene.
these threads are lame... and obviously started by people who don't even own a nexus one.
TotaL BS News...
From a Nexus owner perspective the future is not about slightly better hardware, but about adding real value to the OS.
As far as my Nexus will be updated to any future Android releases I´ll have the better phone out there...others will always have to wait for Google´s compasion.

If that’s what turns you on then fair enough. I maintain the best reason to get a Nexus One (if you accept you eventually have to plump for some phone instead of holding out forever) is that if Google does something cool it’ll pretty much definitely come to us first. And more than likely before everyone else.
But that’s just me, I’m more of a software fan.

If you are referring to me and this thread, you’ve not read it properly. Please see above.
If you are referring to people I criticised in my original post, then I think they probably do own a Nexus One, and become incredibly defensive about it. The people that don’t own one tend to just post saying how they are not going to get one and then their reasons. You can tell because the whole post usually smacks of someone trying to convince themselves of something.
I thought the Scorpion was rumored to be a tablet anyway.
BigDamHero said:
And yes for everyone debating if the Incredible or the Evo mean the Nexus is outdated you can all relax.
Because they are out of date now too – search for HTC Scorpion.
.... which I expect to also be superseded around about tea time.
It’s a point that’s been made in other threads – but you CANNOT keep up with new tech (especially phones). You’ll end up financially ruined if you try. So we can all stop going on about it now and just enjoy our Nexus Ones?

I said almost the polar opposite.
Anyway the HTC Scorpion, IF all the rumours are true will have a faster processor (1.5Ghz). Just search the name for references (as I said in my original post). Given how people are positively suicidal over a slightly better camera on the Incredible, I imagine this will not go down well. Its only a few rumours at the moment.
What I’m basically saying is the N1 is amazing and in no way obsolete just because something newer is out. There ALWAYS will be. So lets not live and die over newer phones that are going to come anyway. Thread after thread of it. Lets just bask in the glory that is the N1. Again I say see my previous posts.
I’m not trying to troll, just posting my viewpoint. What’s disturbing is you are potentially the second person to accuse me of exactly what I am criticising.

This whole thread is dumb; even with the Scorpion coming out HTC is working something to make the scorpion obsolete. Being obsolete doesn't make our Nexus any less awesome than it is.
Wow, they ALL totally missed your point. You were basically telling people to stop complaining about the Nexus One being obsolete. And they all jumped on you thinking you were the one complaining.

Hasta la vista Atorrante
Most people want to complain about the phone... But, what i have found 98% of the time it is the guy you are looking at in the mirror that is the problem.
I wish him well on his quest to find a better phone
i'm thinking about selling my vibrant off too. experienced way too many problems pre-update. now after the update, im getting massive battery drain and gps isn't even working. also, the phone's acting weird and the computer isn't able to connect/recognize the phone anymore. i'm all stock too. such a headache for me, it's just not worth it anymore.
I'm not about to win a Nobel prize or anything but I can think of many MANY things in my life that I have done that are WAY better than buying or selling a phone. I'm not sure buying or selling a phone would even make that list for me.
Really, if that is the best thing you ever do, well then I truly hope you take some time and reflect on maybe at least one thing you can do that could be better than that and try, try again. Don't worry, I'm sure if you keep at it you'll get it.

Just what the title says. Everybody else got what they want in the wp7 i want my phone section up here. That is not too much to ask is it?
I think they are adding boards when the phone is released / becomes popular.
They should add all the new wp7 phones soon.

I hate to upgrade and pay $199 only to find out that it will stay on 3G.
